That was harder than I thought it'd be. Even at my really slow pace. I don't know if anyone else felt this way but by half way through all I felt was dread when I could tell my 90 seconds were coming to an end. I am so thankful that the rec I was running in was more or less empty because I was swearing up a storm by the last three runs lol. I had been planning on doing the strength and flex workout on the alternate days that I don't do c25k but, yeah, might have to leave that for a couple of weeks before I feel like my body can handle both.

But anyway I did it! I completed my first c25k run (without stopping!!) and I am so happy. I can just tell that these weeks are going to be so hard but so worth it.

Oh yes, the pain is there when you know you'll be back walking in a few seconds time. That first run is an absolute killer. You'll be amazed how quickly you progress though. I certainly am.

I'm starting week 7 tonight and now when she says I have a minute left I think well I can definitely do one more minute. Such a change from week 1 when that minute was the longest minute of my life and I thought the podcast would never end!
